or visit. Enlivened by its themed flags, the listed building town centre is the location for many independent, or boutique shops; all seeking to supply the needs of the local people, and visitors. In fact, you probably don’t need to go elsewhere for most of your requirements, which coupled with the free parking leads to a leisurely, relaxing day, shopping and visiting the local cafes and public houses. Visitor information can be obtained from the local Harleston Information Plus, 01379 851917 or
Access to this beautiful town is most directly by road from the A143 between Bungay and Diss. Sitting just on the Suffolk/Norfolk border, Harleston is ideally situated to offer the best location for visiting the countryside and the seaside. Good roads from Harleston reach inland to the lovely Waveney valley, outwards to the scenic east coast resort of Southwold, and into the shopping centres of Norwich. A nicer place it would be difficult to find. So welcome to Harleston, we hope to see you soon.

Harleston’s History Harleston is an unplanned town, unlike other medieval towns such as Great Yarmouth with its 'rows'. Instead, imagine the original town as being a hollow triangle, formed on the south by Exchange Street and The Magpie, on the east by Broad Street and Old Market Place, and on the west by The Thoroughfare, coming to a point at the northern end where it leads into Redenhall Road. The medieval plots on the outside of this triangle stretched back a long way from relatively narrow frontages and contained small orchards and gardens. The buildings would have had shops at the front with dwellings above. Manufacturing occurred in outhouses and workshops which gradually formed 'yards' - busy, noisy places. Although these yards are still in existence today, they are now mostly residential. Within the triangle would have been booths and stalls of varying degrees of permanence. The only substantial building was St John's Chapel of Ease. Although Sunday attendance at Redenhall Church was a requirement in those days, this chapel was intended to cater for the spiritual needs of local people during the week and those visiting the market. Located alongside the chapel was a tollhouse, there for the purpose of collecting market tolls. This building, which was the White Horse Inn in 1654, now houses 'Sight & Sound'. As years passed, the temporary structures in the centre were gradually replaced by more permanent buildings. By 1839 the town had a fully developed town centre which would have been recognisable by a 21st century time traveller! The opening of the Corn Hall in 1850 and the arrival of the railway in 1855 was indicative of prosperous times, and signalled a sound commercial future for the town.
The decision was made in 1764 for the townsfolk of Harleston to purchase a Manual pump fire engine for the town. The cost amounted to ÂŁ65. 1s. 0d. Originally the order for the purchase through the Sun Fire Office was to Mr Ragg, Engine Maker. Unfortunately by April 1765, Mr Ragg had not supplied the engine and the Sun Fire Office explained that he was under misfortune and in confinement. The Sun Fire agent then recommended Mr John Bristow, an Engine Maker from London, and this was duly delivered by sea from London to Yarmouth on 11th September 1765. In 2018, the engine is in good care and awaiting professional restoration. We also look forward to being able to rehouse it in permanent, suitable accommodation. The town is proud of its heritage. For those who want to know more, why not visit the Harleston Museum? Stewarded by enthusiastic volunteers from the Harleston & District Historical Society, the museum is open during limited hours from May to September. Entry is free.

Harleston’s Future Harleston and surrounding communities enjoy a range of activities organised by Harleston’s Future, an independent, voluntary group committed to supporting the Town Council, local businesses and community life. Initiated by the town’s Business Forum, its programmes have been supported by grants from both South Norfolk Council and Town Council. As well as community events, the group runs a cinema, addresses road safety issues for pedestrians and vehicles and aims to provide a better home for wildlife. Undoubted highlights of the year are the antiques market and street party in summer and the Christmas market which, between them, have attracted thousands of people. Another group called ‘FlagForce’ has drawn up a programme of colourful flag displays which celebrate special days and national links to other countries (e.g Commonwealth) and enliven the town centre. An important current project is SwiftActionHarleston which plans to improve the fortunes of the town’s swift population by greatly increasing the number of nest sites to provide these magnificent birds with a secure home while they are with us in spring and early summer. UPCOMING EVENTS IN 2018: Spring Fair - Saturday 5th May On the Spring Bank Holiday Saturday there will be a tremendous treasure hunt around town, lovely live Alpacas to watch, fantastic face painter outside the Coop store (thanks to the Co-op), and songs and dances to welcome in the Spring from Too Many Cooks and traditional Morris dancers, as well as stalls on the Market Place selling plants, produce, crafts and food between 9.30 and 3.30pm. Antiques & Vintage Street Market - Sunday 17th June This will be the 5th year the town hosts its massive antiques and vintage street market from 9.00 am till 3.00 pm. Over 70 stalls will be selling antiques, distressed and painted furniture, vintage clothes, medals and other priceless memorabilia, curios and all manner of collectibles. It will be a great day to wander, browse, buy or barter, greet strangers and meet friends. Plus street food, liquid refreshments, ice-creams and more.
Street Party - Sunday 17th June Again, in the evening, the roads will stay closed for families to come out to enjoy a free party in the Market Place and be entertained by local favourites the Funk Soul Brothers and other local musicians. Gin Bar and Pimms Tent. Thanks to local sponsor Musker McIntyre. 6.30 – 9.30pm. Harleston Food & Drink Festival - Saturday 6th October Apples will again be the theme of the day – look out for pop-up apple trees, an apple trail, hot apple drinks, toffee apples and more. Plus the street market in the Market Place and Exchange Street featuring lots of delicious food and drink to take home or eat out, and free street entertainment. Christmas Market & Lights Switch-On Event Saturday 1st December Another colourful Street Market with stalls selling crafts and hand-made gifts, delicious cakes and Christmas puds, Christmas trees, garlands and wreaths, and lots of delicious street food. Father Christmas and some of his elves will be in residence in Santa’s Grotto at Harleston Information Plus and there will be street entertainment, including the East of England Co-op Brass Band (thanks to EoE Co-op for their support) and more, before the Christmas tree lights are switched on at 6.30pm.

Walks
Harleston is close to the River Waveney - the boundary between Norfolk and Suffolk.
Walk 1 - Harleston via Starston. Approx distance of 2.8 miles. Steep gradients.
The walks explore the Norfolk side of the Waveney valley - an ancient landscape comprising a complex network of irregular fields bounded by old hedgerows, remnants of the ancient woods, winding lanes connecting villages, hay meadows and pastures, rivers and wetlands; all now set in modern arable land. There are many routes walkers can take, and further information on many more walks can be found at Harleston Information Plus which is situated in Exchange Street. Here are just three examples of the interesting walks you can take.
This walk starts at the Recreation Ground, turning onto Wilderness Lane, Starston Road and then down Bunn's Lane (off the B1134 Starston Road). If you turn right at the end of Bunn's Lane and follow the hill down The Street, you will see St Margaret's Church ahead. If you don't wish to visit the church, turn right past the village hall, and at the end of the pavement turn right onto the public footpath just after passing The Rectory. Ignore the track on the left but keep right on the grass path up the steep hill, go around the corner and continue with the hedge on your right. Cross the dismantled railway line, then the bridge over the ditch and continue beside another field up the hill to Bunn's Lane, cross the road and you will be back on Starston Road, where you can either make your way back to the Recreation Ground or go through Weavers Croft, passing Herolf Way and Pilgrims Way, on to Swan Lane and then onto the main street, The Thoroughfare.

22 |
Walks Walk 2 - Harleston via Lushbush. Approx distance of 3.2 miles. Moderate gradients. The start point is at St John the Baptist, Broad Street. With your back to the church, turn right along Broad Street. Keep right and walk along Redenhall Road out of Harleston towards Redenhall, past the poplar trees and turn left down the hill to Lushbush. Turn left at the T-junction, cross the bridge over the stream and turn right on the public footpath up the hill. Walk up this field edge path keeping the trees on your right. Turn right on reaching the road and, after a short distance, turn left onto the public footpath just after, and adjacent to, the drive to a house. Walk on this wide grass field margin towards and then beside Gawdy Hall Wood. After a short distance turn right at the way marker post to cross the field over the hill down to the road, emerging opposite the junction. Turn right at the road (Church Lane), look out for the wooden memorial to a World War One plane crash on the right just before Church Lane Cottages. Turn first right and follow the road over the hill, continue ahead at the crossroads. Bear left at the junction and walk up Station Hill and continue along Station Road. Turn right at the end, cross where possible and return to the start point. This walk passes close to Gawdy Hall Big Wood, an undisturbed Site of Special Scientific Interest. Whilst there is no public access, the footpath is adjacent to it for a short distance and the large wood is visible from any of the country roads all around.
Walk 3 - Harleston via Redenhall. Approx distance of 4 miles. Steep gradients. The start point is St John the Baptist, Broad Street. With your back to the church, turn right and walk along Broad Street, then Redenhall Road, and continue for approximately one mile to the roundabout. Cross at the roundabout and walk up to St Mary's Church. After visiting the church, return to the road and continue over the brow of the hill. Turn right into Cook's Lane. Continue along Cook's Lane turning left at the junction to walk down Cuckoo Lane, a very steep hill. Turn right at the T-junction onto Low Road. Turn right at the public footpath finger post just after Freston Farm and Freston House and walk up the steep hill (part of Angles Way). At the junction of footpaths, at the brow of the hill, continue ahead (by turning right then immediately left at the second way marker post) and keep the ditch on your left. Just before a small wood on your left, turn right to walk down to the road. Turn left into Green Lane, cross the A143 at the crossing point and continue as Green Lane becomes Jay's Green. As the road bears sharp right, continue ahead onto Straight Lane, turning left at the end to return to the start point at the church.
